Can anyone advise what openssl commands I can use to convert these .pem files to the required format needed for Prism Central/Prism Element? I have attempted multiple commands from https://www.sslsupportdesk.com/openssl-commands/ but I can't seem to find the exact one.

I'm looking to ultimately find a way to script this process as well, so if anyone knows how to replace the certs in Prism Central/Prism Element via CLI, I would appreciate that too. Initially though, I'd be happy just finding the correct certificate format to use.

OK i'll post this here since this is top post if you google nutanix prism letsencrypt.
To answer your question, openssl is not needed to convert the certificates.
What is tricky is to get Nutanix to take the chain.pem, after some frustrating tries I got it to work like this:

Better to use openssl to create the csr and the key file. Take the csr to your certificate authority and have it signed. You can get a pem from that. Take the pem file, key file, and the root/ca bundle and upload it to your prism console.
